en CR 22 Cell : The smallest structural unit of an organism that is capable of independent functioning, consisting of cytoplasm, usually one nucleus, and various other organelles, all surrounded by a semipermeable cell membrane. ConnectiveTissue : Tissue arising chiefly from the embryonic mesoderm that is characterized by a highly vascular matrix and includes collagenous, elastic, and reticular fibers, adipose tissue, cartilage, and bone. It forms the supporting and connecting structures of the body. Dehydration : Excessive loss of water from the body or from an organ or body part, as from illness or fluid deprivation. EpithelialTissue : A type of animal tissue made up of densely packed cells that rest on a basement membrane to act as a covering or lining of various bodily surfaces. ExternalStimulus : A stimulus that originates from outside an organism. Excrete : To separate and discharge waste matter from the blood, tissues, or organs. Homeostasis : A state of equilibrium, as in an organism or cell, maintained by self-regulating processes. IntegumentarySystem : The bodily system consisting of the skin and its associated structures, such as the hair, nails, sweat glands, and sebaceous glands. InternalStimulus : A stimulus that originates from inside an organism. Melanin : Any of a group of naturally occurring dark pigments, especially the pigment found in skin, hair, fur, and feathers. MuscleTissue : A contractile organ consisting of a special bundle of muscle tissue, which moves a particular bone, part, or substance of the body. NervousTissue : The main component of the two parts of the nervous system; the brain and spinal cord of the central nervous system (CNS), and the branching peripheral nerves of the peripheral nervous system (PNS), which regulates and controls bodily functions and activity. Organ : A combination of tissues working together to perform a specific function. Perspiration : The fluid, consisting of water with small amounts of urea and salts, that is excreted through the pores of the skin by the sweat glands. Tissue : A group of cells working together to perform a specific function. Epidermis : The outer, protective, nonvascular layer of the skin of vertebrates, covering the dermis. Dermis : The sensitive connective tissue layer of the skin located below the epidermis, containing nerve endings, sweat and sebaceous glands, and blood and lymph vessels Keratin : A tough, insoluble protein substance that is the chief structural constituent of hair, nails, horns, and hooves. Collagen : The fibrous protein constituent of bone, cartilage, tendon, and other connective tissue. NailRoot : The proximal end of the nail, concealed under a fold of skin. Lunula : A small crescent-shaped structure or marking, especially the white area at the base of a fingernail that resembles a half-moon. SweatGlands : Glands located in the epidermis, which produce perspiration. HairFollicle : A deep narrow pit that is formed by the tubular infolding of the epidermis and that encloses the root of the hair.
